Wings of Angel

I used to hate myself because I wasn't "normal". Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not 36 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder(脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much 37 than others. I hated going to school and I hated  others  38  at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing 39 and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 40 and seeing an ugly  hunchback(驼背).

My friends found me 41 because I didn't let other get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 42 Angela appeared.

That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school—a spot where no one would 43 me. That's when I first heard your voice. "Hi. Can I sit down?"

I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face. "What are you looking at?" you asked. "Ants." "What are they doing?" "No 44 ." "I bet they're playing games and make friends. Don't you think so?" That was how our 45 started and it didn't stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)—until it was sunset. Then suddenly, you saw my 46 . She just stared. My heart 47 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 48 me now. She stood up, pointed at my back and said, "I know 49   your back is hunched." I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be 50 . I begged in my heart for her to 51 , but she just kept on going. "I know what you've got there. Do you?" "No," I answered 52 . She bent and whispered in my ears. "Your back is bunched because you've got a pair of wings from the angels."I was 53 . I looked into her eyes and her 54 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 55 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind_hearted friend.

阅读理解

  About ten men in every hundred suffer from colour blindness in some way; women are luckier only about one in two hundred is affected in this manner.There are different forms of colour blindness.A man may not be able to see deep red.

  He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green.Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green.In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green-a strange world indeed.

  In certain occupations color blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully.For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal to each other.A green light may mean “Advance” and a red light may mean “Danger! Keep back!”, You can see what will happen if somebody thinks that red is green! Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain.In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, these help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colors.There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark.They show us shape but not color.Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside.Look round you and try to see what colors you can recognize.

  Birds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colors.As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colors at all only light and dark shapes.Similarly cats and dogs cannot see colors as well as we can.

  Insects can see ultraviolet rays which are invisible to us, and some of them can even see X-rays.The wings of a moth may seem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colors which we cannot see.Scientists know that there are other colors around us which insects can see but which we cannot see.Some insects have favorite colors.Mosquitoes like blue, but do not like yellow.A red light will not attract insects but a blue lamp will.

(1)

[  ]

some may see everything in shades of green

B.

few can tell the difference between blue and green

(2)

When millions of rods in our eyes are at work in darkness we can see ________.

[  ]

A.

colors only

B.

shapes and colors

C.

shapes only

D.

darkness only

(3)

According to the passage, bats and adult owls cannot see colors ________.

[  ]

B.

because they cannot see light

C.

because they have no cones and rods

The summer beach season is prime time for shark attacks. It seems like sharks are attacking all the time .But that is something of an illusion. The number of attacks is very small.

   How does a shark hunt? Muscles and fins (鳍)give the shark its speed and maneuverability(灵活)in the water. A shark’s front fins act like the wings of a plane and let it “fly” through the water. The tail acts like a high-power propeller(推进器).

But the big thing that gives the shark its edge in the ocean is its sensory package. The package includes the shark’ eyes ,ears ,skin, nose and mouth, as well as electric sensing.

   A shark' nose is probably its most important sense.  If you were to put a single drop of blood in a swimming pool ,a great white shark could smell that. And they can tell the direction that the smell is coming from.

   Sharks handle their electric sensing using cell located in the head .Whenever something moves using its muscles , a shark can detect the electrical impulses( 脉冲)flowing to those muscles. A shark can electrically “see” anything that has muscles even if it is hiding or the water is not clear.

   Sharks even have vibration sensors in their skin. Even something moves near  the shark ,tubes pick up the pressure changes and hairs inside the tubes send signals to the brain . This extra sense allows a shark to turn quickly and attack again.

   When you put all these different senses together ,it makes the shark a nearly ideal hunter. A shark can detect prey from miles away and then use eyes ,electrosensing and movement sensing to home in .

   Strangely, sharks do not seem to use these senses to home in on people. The very low number of sharks tells us that sharks do not hunt people on a regular basis. On the other hand , people love to hunt sharks. Millions of sharks die every year. Without protection ,extinction is a definite possibility.

From the text ,we can know that____________________.

A. it is true that sharks are attacking all the time .

B. a shark can see anything that has muscles even if it is hiding

C. sharks deal with their electric sensing using cell located in the skin .

D. what gives the shark its speed and maneuverability is fins and muscles.

What gives the shark its edge in the ocean according to the text?

A. its muscles     B. its nose     C. Its sensory package   D. Its fins

The underlined phrase “home in on ”means_________.

A. swim            B. move           C. hunt          D. smell

In this text ,the writer implies that ________________.

A. there are many shark attacks.           B. humans beings should protect sharks
